Answer:
The velocity of the truck after this elastic collision is 15.7 m/s
Explanation:
It is given that,
Mass of the car,
Mass of the truck,
Initial velocity of the car,
Initial velocity of the truck, u₂ = 0
After the collision the velocity of the car is, v₁ = -11 m/s
Let v₂ is the velocity of the truck after this elastic collision. Using the conservation of momentum as :
So, the velocity of the truck after this elastic collision is 15.7 m/s. Hence, the correct option is (c).
Answer:
The fly travels 2.4 m
Explanation:
Since the Two steamrollers begin 100 m apart and head toward each other, each at a constant speed of 1.00 m/s, we can find the time until they crash by the formula:
Distance = Speed × Time
Time = Distance /Speed
Time = (100 m) / (1 m/s)
Time = 100 hours
Now, the fly will spend the same amount of time traveling as the steamrollers.
Since the fly moves at a speed of 2.4 m/s and we have a time of one hour the steamroller take to collide, then the fly will go a distance of;
Distance = speed x time = 2.4 × 1 = 2.4 m
Answer:
346 * 10⁶ m
Explanation:
The force of gravity of the earth that will cancel the the force of gravity exerted by the moon will be equal to each other
Let be the force of gravity exerted by the earth
and let be the force of gravity exerted by the moon
According to Newton's law of universal gravitation, the force of attraction between two different masses, m₁ and m₂ separated by a distance, d, is given by:
Mass of the earth,
Mass of the moon,
Mass of the satellite,
...............................(1)
The earth and the moon are separated by a distance, 3.844 * 10⁸ m
............................(2)
Equating equations (1) and (2)
Factorising out
Solving for d in the quadratic equation above:
d = 346 * 10⁶ m
Answer:
Answer (b)
Explanation:
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity in time, therefore constant acceleration will be changing velocity in direct proportion to time and will have a linear plot on a velocity/time chart. This eliminates answer (d) which has an increasing acceleration in time
answer (a) has a negative slope so the acceleration would be considered negative
answer (c) has zero slope so acceleration is zero and velocity is constant.
answer (b) has the required positive slope and acceleration
